Exercise Science (M.S.)

The M.S. program is available to those students who wish to pursue study of a specialized
focus within the body of knowledge underlying Exercise Science. Graduate students
experience the Exercise Science sub-disciplines of Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics
within our excellent facilities at East Stroudsburg University.

Students can choose from two options within the MS Exercise Science: the thesis option
or the internship option. In the thesis option students will gain experience in the design and implementation of research within
the field of Exercise Science, culminating in a written thesis that is subject to
faculty review. In the internship option students will gain experience in a work environment through the culminating experience
of an internship completed in an area allied to Exercise Science. Students can also
select fall or spring admission to the program depending upon their specific needs.

Graduation from this program will provide the student with the professional preparation
for credentialing from organizations including the American College of Sports Medicine
(ASCM) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), and/or to pursue
more advanced study (doctoral degree) or a career in exercise science research.
